Capitalization

The complete web also contains three categories that do not have trees. Category:Quotes is used for all "List of Quotes in..." pages and Category:Staff and Category:Glitches are both used for the subpages of the same name, making them more like "topic" categories than regular subject categories, and as such, they are handled differently as well. Namely, no other levels need to be made to divide the categories into series-based chunks. As mentioned in the Overview, the subpages and any other pages attached to a game (i.e. "List of Quotes...") are given the Lv. 5 Game categories as well as their topic categories.

The "Q"s should be made lowercase, as per new policy. There may be more scattered around the page and other policies, but I can't find many.

Good spotting: I updated it. I also fixed MarioWiki:Navigation templates, which also had some outdated names. - Walkazo 20:45, 11 November 2012 (EST)

Proposal

According to a proposal, all instances of Yoshi (series) that are here need to be changed to Yoshi (franchise). I can't do it. Red Yoshi in a construction hat walking Yoshi the SSM (talk) 15:05, 19 October 2016 (EDT)

Done.

Update lines

The lines, "for example, being a Koopa king is part of Bowser's core identity, and should come before the more minor or trivial things, like how he's a parent and uses magic." and, "For example, Bowser's inclusion in the Koopa species is more notable than him being a parent, and should therefore appear first." have to be updated to account for the creation of Category:Koopas (Bowser's species).
